- TRIVIA -
Released in April 1993.
Captain Kidd is based on the real Captain William Kidd (1645-1701)
The last boss of this game was 'Baoh' from the manga called 'Baoh'!
The difficulty setting seems to have no effect on the game, the game is just as difficult on Level 1 as it is on Level 8!.
The 'Skinhead' Deathmatch level does not feature any trap or hazzard to look out for, however the loser in this particular ring will get his/her head shaven! :)
Pony Canyon released a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (World Heroes 2 - PCCB-00122) on 18/06/1993.
- TIPS AND TRICKS -
* Alternate Costume Colors : Press B button when selecting a character.
* Most characters have a preset multi-hit combo that can be used by simply tapping the punch button many times while next to an enemy!
* Some characters that have hold-type throws (Kim Dragon, Ryoko, Muscle Power, Rasputin & J. Maximum) can drain LOTS of energy of a CPU controlled fighter by quickly shaking the joystick left or right while performing a hold! Oddly enough, this trick does not seem to work with some character's holds such as Janne, Captain Kidd & Mudman though!
